Directions to use

How should Orthomol® Tendo be taken?

Dissolve the contents of one packet (= daily serving) in 100-150 ml of non-carbonated
water or fruit juice and take it together with the omega-3 fatty acid capsules, with or
after a meal, every day. It is recommended to take the enzyme tablet about half an
hour before a meal.

How long should Orthomol® Tendo be taken?

Micronutrients are needed every day - therefore a regular use on a long-term basis
is recommended.

What must be observed?

Orthomol® Tendo contains readily available carbohydrates. If you suffer from
disturbances of glucose tolerance, only use this food supplement with careful
metabolism control.

Orthomol® Tendo should not be used during pregnancy and breast-feeding or for
children. Although there were no noticeable disturbances when glucosamine was
used during pregnancy in a study, we do not recommend glucosamine or chondroitin
during pregnancy and breast-feeding or for children due to the limited
existing data.

If you use drugs which affect your blood coagulation, the coagulation parameters
should be checked at frequent intervals, especially at the start and termination of
treatment.

The recommended daily serving should not be exceeded.

Food supplements are not a replacement for a varied, balanced diet and a healthy
lifestyle.

Keep out of reach of children.

Is there any other useful information?

Orthomol® Tendo is lactose- and gluten-free.

When you take Orthomol® Tendo, occasional slight belching due to the fish oil
content (omega-3 fatty acids) in the capsules may occur. In order to avoid this,
it is recommendable to take the capsules before going to bed.

The vitamin B2 content in Orthomol® Tendo may cause a yellow discoloration of
the urine.

This product contains beta-carotene (provitamin A) which has a strong coloring
effect. Any stains, e.g. on clothes, are difficult to remove.
